Summary

A battered detective.

A dead girl on the beach.

A small town on edge.

A curmudgeon. An iconoclast. A loner. That's how people describe Garrison Gage, and that's when they're being charitable.

After his wife's brutal murder in New York, and Gage himself is beaten nearly to death, the crippled private investigator retreats 3,000 miles to the quaint coastal town of Barnacle Bluffs, Oregon. He spends the next five years in a convalescent stupor, content to bide his time filling out crossword puzzles and trying to forget that his wife's death is his fault. But all that changes when he discovers the body of a young woman washed up on the beach, and his conscience draws him back into his old occupation - forcing him to confront the demons of his own guilt before he can hope to solve the girl's murder.

Not at all what I expected.

When I got this book my expectations were not very high however I was wrong. At soon as I started listening I was totally drawn into the story and any spare time I had the headphones went on and I was into the story again. I don't tell what the story is about because I think that gives people a predetermined idea about the story but I will say read it.

Who did it

I love a good mystery. The narration was really good. I could picture the places and the people. This is my kind of story
